The work of Philadelphia area student playwrights will be brought to lifeon stage during Philadelphia Young Playwrights’ 2010 Professional Pro-

ductions, presented by PNC Arts Alive, from March 2 - 5, 2010. Fully stagedprofessional productions of winning student plays will be performed by pro-fessional actors and directed by David Bradley, a long-time Young Playwright’steaching artist and member of People’s Light & Theatre Company. The per-formances offer students the extraordinary opportunity to work closely withaward-winning professional directors, dramaturges, actors and stage crew,and have their work featured on the main stage of the Suzanne RobertsTheatre, home of Philadelphia Theatre Company, located at 480 South BroadStreet on the Avenue of the Arts in Philadelphia.

The themes of the 2010 Professional Productions are Peace and Self-Dis-covery. The student-penned works explore these topics alongside issues ofracial, cultural and ethnic diversity. The program will feature the play Milkand Honey written by Emily Acker while a student at The Baldwin School inBryn Mawr. In Milk and Honey, two worlds collide over a soccer ball as anIsraeli boy and a Palestinian boy come together amidst intolerance and vio-lence. Influenced by her study-abroad experience in an American programin Israel during her sophomore year, Acker began writing Milk and Honey in11th grade, when she returned to The Baldwin School. She is now a freshmanat Northwestern University, majoring in theater and political science.

“It was an indescribable experience, one that has changed my life,” saysAcker. “After living in Israel, the conflict there ... sparked my interest moreso than most American politics. I consider it a home away from home. Be-cause the political arena there seems stuck at a never-ending stalemate, Ithink that it is important to promote peace inall other fields. I guess you could say I’m try-ing to do my part with this play.”

Milk and Honey won Young Playwrights’ 2008Annual Playwriting Festival. The play was firstproduced at the organization’s New Voices:Workshop Productions at Temple Universityin 2008. During and since that time, Acker hascontinued to develop her play. In 2009, Ackerserved as a program intern at PhiladelphiaYoung Playwrights and a special guest speak-

er at the organization’s Artistic Team Retreat. Acker went on to win the 2009 Young Play-wrights Inc. National Playwriting Competition, and in early January, Milk and Honey had asuccessful off-Broadway reading.

The Professional Productions program will also feature the monologues F.A.T. by Kya S.Johnson of Little Flower Catholic High School for Girls inNortheast Philadelphia and Torn Between by Aimee Leongof Center City’s Science Leadership Academy—both winnersof the 2009 Young Voices High School Monologue Festival.

Performances are open to the general public with ticketprices ranging from $10 - 15, with free admission for schoolgroups. The schedule includes a Special Accessible Preview(sign interpreted and captioned) on Tuesday, March 2 at7:30 p.m.; Student Matinees, Wednesday, March 3 - Friday,March 5 at 11:00 a.m.; and evening performances on Wednes-day, March 3 at 7:30 p.m. and Thursday, March 4 at 7:00p.m. For info, visit www.phillyyoungplaywrights.org or call215-665-9226.

Conestoga High School’s ’Stoga Music Theatre will pre-sent the musical comedy of fractured fairytales “Into

the Woods,” March 2 at 10 a.m. and 7:30 p.m., March 3and 5 at 7:30 p.m. and March 6 at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. inthe Wagner Auditorium, 200 Irish Road, Berwyn.

Megan Nicole O’Brien, Resident Director of the 11th HourTheatre Company in Philadelphia, joins Musical Director

Suzanne Dickinger to lead a cast, crew and pit orchestra of9-12 grade students in the award-winning Stephen Sondheimmusical comedy. Thrilled to be directing the Conestogacast of Sondheim’s “Into the Woods,” O’Brien states, “Mostof the work I do in theatre is a credit to Stephen Sondheim,because he’s considered the father of contemporary musi-cal theatre. I think he’s incredibly insightful and inventiveand I’m excited to be working on one of his plays.”

“Into the Woods blends various familiar fairy tales withan original story of a childless baker and his wife, who areattempting to reverse a curse on their family in order tohave a child. Little Red Riding Hood, Jack of Jack and theBeanstalk and Cinderella become entangled in the tale thatbegins as a storybook journey and ends with consequencesthat the traditional fairy tales conveniently ignore.

O’Brien has put a modern twist on the show, “making thecharacters more rock-and-roll, a little more realistic, thanthe storybook ones. This modern twist is something thatbrings out the youth of the cast members.”

“Into the Woods” won multiple Tony Awards for the origi-nal 1997 Broadway production and the 2003 revival. Althoughthe storybook characters will be familiar, the musical con-tains some adult humor.

Premium seats for “Into the Woods” are $12 and standardseats are $10. Special discounts are available in standardseating for students age 19 and younger and seniors 62 yearsand older. Tickets can be purchased at www.stogamusic.com,during lunchtime sales at Conestoga from 11 a.m. to 12:45p.m. on February 26 and March 1 - 3, or one hour beforeeach performance.

Although it’s just two months intothe New Year, many people have

already given up on one of the mostcommon New Year’s Resolutions: Tolose weight.

Why is it so difficult to lose weightand keep it off? The most challengingpart of the problem is seeing weightloss as a short-term goal. Many peopleare able to focus on it intensely for ashort period of time, such as a fewweeks or even a few months. By then,one of two things has happened: Theyhave lost some weight but go off thediet because they’re discouraged thatthey didn’t lose more, or they give upbecause they can’t keep up with theradical changes typically required byprograms that promise quick and easyweight loss.

The solution is to reframe this majorgoal (losing weight) into smaller, moreachievable changes that result in ahealthier overall lifestyle and weightloss you can sustain for the rest of yourlife. Here are three small changes youcan make right now that will make abig impact:

1.Use a smaller plate. In the 1950s, ifwe had taken a dinner plate out of

the cabinet of the average American kitchen, it would haveaveraged nine inches across. Today, the average Americandinner plate has grown to thirteen inches. In Alex Bogusky’spopular book, “The 9-Inch Diet,” he suggests replacing youroversized dinner plate with the smaller plate. Bogusky sayshe took three inches off his waist from just this small change.Since most Americans will eat everything on their plate,using a smaller one will help reshape your behavior towardhealthier, smaller portions.

2.Portion out food instead of eating from the bag.Psychologically, we tend to think of a container as

one “portion,” no matter how large the container is. Toprove this, Brian Wansink (author of the book “MindlessEating: Why We Eat More Than We Think” and Director ofthe Cornell Food and Brand Lab) conducted an experimentto see if people would eat more of something out of a largecontainer even if they didn’t like what they were eating. Hereplaced fresh popcorn with stale two-week old popcornat a movie theater. Popcorn buyers complained that it was

stale, but those who ate from largebuckets ate almost 35 percent morethan those who ate from small buck-ets. Many overweight people tend toeat snacks from large, multi-servingbags. Even a small bag of Herr’s potatochips contains two servings, not one.So, you should portion out the con-tents of large bags into smaller plas-tic bags or containers, and take onlyone portion at a time. This applies toall kinds of snacks, including nuts, trailmix, popcorn, raisins and more.

3.Slow down! So many of us tendto rush through meals. It’s the

downside of “multitasking” lifestyles,where people often eat while doingother things like watching TV, workingat a desk or, worst of all, driving. Thereare two benefits to slowing down. First,it takes some time for your brain toregister signals from the stomach thatyou’re full. When you eat too quickly,the slow transit time of that messageresults in overeating because you con-tinue to eat beyond the point whereyou’re full. So, one benefit of eatingmore slowly is that you’ll recognizewhen you’re full and stop before youovereat. The second benefit is that

when you eat more slowly, you will enjoy your food more!As the food spends more time in contact with your tastebuds, you will taste the flavors more easily than if you’rerushing.

The techniques of using a smaller plate, portioning outsnack foods and slowing down are all small changes thatdon’t restrict you at all. They can result in substantialbehavior change and a radical reduction in the caloriesyou consume. All of these changes are easy to implementtoday and maintain for a lifetime.

Orthopaedic Surgeon to Present Seminaron Sports Injuries

Immaculée Ilibagiza, a survivor of the horrific Rwandangenocide of 1994, will share her compelling tale of survival

and forgiveness at Neumann University on Sunday, March7, at 1 p.m. The presentation is scheduled for the MirendaCenter for Sport, Spirituality and Character Developmentwhere Ilibagiza will sign copies of her books after the pro-gram.

During the Rwandan holocaust, Ilibagiza was forced tohide with seven other women in a tiny bathroom for 91 days.She entered the bathroom a 115-pound university studentwith a close family; she emerged weighing just 65 poundsto find that her entire family (except one brother) had beenbrutally murdered. She credits her survival to her unfail-ing reliance on prayer, particularly her devotion to therosary, which she prayed as many as 28 times per day.

Following this period of intense physical, emotional, andspiritual trial, Ilibagiza dedicated herself to sharing her or-deal with the goal of fostering peace around the world andovercoming entrenched differences.

Her first book, Left to Tell: Discovering God Amidst theRwandan Holocaust (Hay House) was released in March of2006 and quickly became a New York Times best seller. Todate it has been translated into fifteen languages worldwide.

Ilibagiza has been interviewed by 60 Minutes, The CBSEarly Morning Show, CNN, EWTN, The Aljazeera Network,The New York Times, USA Today, Newsday, and many otherdomestic and international media outlets. She has writtenthree additional books in recent years: Led by Faith: Risingfrom the Ashes of the Rwandan Genocide; Our Lady of Kibeho;and If Only We Had Listened.

Proceeds of items sold at the event will benefit the LeftTo Tell Charitable Fund (LTTCF). The Fund relocatesRwandan orphans and assists them with educationalneeds, providing scholarships to school-age children.Ilibagiza’s parents were both educators in Rwanda, andthe LTTCF was inspired by and established to honor theirmemory.

Admission to the event, sponsored and organized by theFranciscan Spiritual Center, is $20 for adults and $10 forstudents. To purchase tickets, visit www.fscaston.org orcall 610-558-6152.

SJU previously hosted four other Scholars’ conferences. Notably, in 2000, Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel was the keynotespeaker, and received an Honorary Doctorate from the University. William Madges, Ph.D., dean of the College of Artsand Sciences, and Nancy Fox, Ph.D., associate dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, are the overall 2010 conference

Littell, who passed away in 2009 at the age of 91, was an ordained Minister of the UnitedMethodist Church and former chair of the religion department at Temple University. Hefirst encountered Nazism in Germany in July 1939, as a young pastor leading a delegationof Methodist youth to a world conference. Stopping in Nuremburg, he engaged in aheated discussion with an S.S. officer regarding the intentions of Adolf Hitler.

Later, Littell served for nearly 10 years in the occupation and de-Nazification of Germanyas the Chief Protestant Religious Officer in the High Command. He was deeply affected by

his experience, and dedicated the restof his career to speaking, teaching andresearching religious freedom, Jewish-Christian relations, human rights andthe Holocaust. His book, The Crucifix-ion of the Jews, was the first Christianresponse to the Holocaust.

The conference, which is interfaith,international and interdisciplinary,

will bring scholars, experts, survivors and community leaders to speak on topics rangingfrom the failure of mainstream media to cover the fate of European Jews during WorldWar II – Laurel Leff, Ph.D., of Northeastern University, author of Buried by The Times: TheHolocaust and America’s Most Important Newspaper – to contemporary Holocaust denial.Participants in the five plenary sessions, 16 breakout sessions and a special Teachers’Institute will come from all over North America as well as Australia, Belarus, England,France, Germany, Greece, Israel, Japan and Russia.

The Graystone Society, located in the Lukens National Historic District inCoatesville, has announced its fourth annual Rebecca Lukens Award to

be presented to noted Coatesville and Chester County community, churchand political leader, Gladys Flamer. Established by The Graystone Societyto honor individuals who exhibit the qualities of Rebecca Lukens, the annualaward will be presented to Flamer at a March 18th reception in the LukensExecutive Office Building—the date commemorating Rebecca Lukens’ 216thbirthday.

Born in 1906 in Christiana and one of thirteen children, Gladys Flamer wasjust a young girl out of Benner High School when she took the job as laun-dress at the home of Lukens Steel president, Robert Wolcott at his estate inThorndale. Eventually, through hard work and dedication, she would achievethe position of head cook. Gladys remembers her days at The Wolcott Estate,“as sometimes polishing silver for two days straight,” or watching the “dogsas big as cows” being walked.

Because education was hard to come by (especially for African-Americangirls), Mrs. Flamer’s parents aligned their daughter with people who hadthe benefit of a higher education. One such group hailed from Cheney Uni-versity and traveled to meet then-first lady, Eleanor Roosevelt for a luncheonin the White House. Mrs. Flamer recalls, “Three cars traveled from Coatesvilleto the White House from Cheney. Most of those people are dead now. Godblessed me to be here after they have gone.” Seven decades later that sameuniversity would bestow a full scholarship upon Mrs. Flamer.

Mrs. Flamer’s illustrious and diversified career would take her in manydirections. She once owned a beauty shop in Coatesville for twenty years.She was an LPN at the VA Medical Center and Embreeville Hospital. She alsoworked for Lukens Steel and the Pennsylvania Railroad. Many also rememberher tenure as a sales associate at Strawbridge and Clothier at the age of 90.

She is an active member of her church and politically shrewd. Her dedica-tion to her community includes membership in The Coatesville HistoricalCommission, The Eastern Stars, The Better Community Group and BetterHousing and Politics, the Sick Committee, theCoatesville Senior Center, the local NAACPand the Hyacinth Federated Club (amongothers). She is a Judge of Elections in her fifthward and she still attends Council Meetings.She continues to bake homemade pies and

serves lunch to the Thursday Retired Men’s Club. She received a host of awards andhonors for dedicated service and devotion to hard work in many of these organizations.

Mrs. Flamer’s secret to longevity? “Serving the Lord. I was raised in the Church. Thesaints are supposed to take care of the Lord’s Temple.”

The Rebecca Lukens Award will be presented to Gladys Flamer at a reception in theLukens Executive Office Building, 50 South First Avenue, in Coatesville, Pa., on March 18,2010, from 5 to 7 p.m. Tickets are $40 and reservations are required.

For event information and reservations, contact The Graystone Society at 610-384-9282or [email protected].

Created in 1984, The Graystone Society helps preserve the City of Coatesville’s historicarchitecture and assists with municipal improvement and economic development throughpreservation. The Graystone Society is named for Graystone Mansion, an important prop-erty within the Lukens National Historic District. The district is the future home of TheNational Iron and Steel Heritage Museum. The museum will focus on the people, places,products and processes that made Lukens Steel Company a Fortune 500 producer of car-bon, alloy and stainless steels. The Coatesville steel mill is America’s oldest, continuous-ly operating iron and steel mill and will celebrate its 200th anniversary in July 2010.

“Read and Romp 2010” RaisesFunds for Early Literacy

Over 125 families attended Read and Romp 2010, the fam-ily event that benefits Reach Out and Read Greater Phila-delphia (RORGP). Reach Out and Read Greater Philadelphiais a pediatric early literacy organization that brings booksand literacy guidance to the region’s most disadvantagedchildren. The January 31 event at The Baldwin School usedgames, activities, and crafts to celebrate children’s favoritebooks and their natural love of reading.

Now in its fourth year, Read and Romp has become one ofthe area’s not-to-be missed benefit events. New this year toRead and Romp was a performance of “If You Take a Mouseto School” by the Walnut Street Theatre’s Touring OutreachCompany. The Walnut Street Theatre’s performance was dueto a generous grant from the Save a Mind Foundation. Eventsponsors also included Endo Pharmaceuticals, Elliott-Lewis,Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children, The Children’sHospital of Philadelphia, The Simkiss Companies and St. Chris-topher’s Hospital for Children.

“Attending Read and Romp together, families celebratedtheir love of reading and also helped make a difference inthe lives of other children,” said Dr. Kristen Kucharczuk, theassociate medical director of Reach Out and Read GreaterPhiladelphia. “Because of our dedicated team of volunteers,nearly every dollar we raised goes directly to providing booksto children who would otherwise grow up without them.”

The funds raised from Read and Romp 2010 will helpRORGP serve 36,000 young children in Southeastern Penn-sylvania. RORGP’s innovative approach uses regular well-child doctor’s visits to provide books to at-risk young chil-dren and literacy advice to their parents. For info aboutRORGP, visit www.rorgp.org.

at the Nelly Ber-

man School of

Music and quite

an accomplished

violinist for his

young age.

Chanlan had a

deep passion for

music that was transparent and vibrant. He was involved

in not only solo performances, but chamber groups and

intensive summer camps. His hard work paid off when he

was the youngest soloist chosen to perform on the stage

at the Kimmel Center as a platinum winner of the NBS Golden

Key Competition. In addition to his heart for playing, he was

also dedicated to the scholarship program that supplement-

ed his lesson fees. To show his appreciation, he took initia-

tive to raise funds, over $300 to be exact, by playing in his

parents’ restaurant in the Chinatown section of Philadelphia.

The January 23 concert will be held at Centennial Hall at

The Haverford School, 450 Lancaster Avenue, Haverford,

from 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. The event, showcasing students and

professional musicians, will commemorate Chanlan’s love

and passion for music and life. A donation of $15 per adu

and $10 per child is suggested. All proceeds will benefi

the Chanlan Lee Scholarship Program, which will provid

a scholarship to a gifted violin student, from around th

ion with adequate lessons to foster their talent.
